[quote=Anonymous]I think you should look into making sure this isn't about blood sugar - when she's grouchy, try refusing to speak to her until she eats some cheese or a granola bar (one with nuts). If she perks up after the eating, then you consider this information about her body: Train her to monitor how she feels and require that she eat when a) you tell her to, or b) when it has been too long (healthy things). She can control her behavior by controlling her body. Or, it may turn out that she just needs more control. But, it really is too much to ask an 8 year old with low blood sugar to be all that lovely.[/quote]
